Purpose: Our study aimed to evaluate the 100 most cited publications related to Sjögren's Syndrome (SS) in terms of their bibliometric characteristics. Material and Methods: Our study was carried out with the appropriate keywords by using the "Web of Science (WOS) "search engine after obtaining ethics committee approval. The search was performed on 23.06.2021, and the top 100 most cited publications were determined. The total number of citations of each publication, the annual number of citations, the authors, the information related to the study and the journal were determined. Results: In the literature analysis covering the period between 1975 and 2021, it was determined that there were a total of 22,251 publications related to SS. The total citation average of the 100 most cited articles was found to be 333.10±386.10, while the annual citation average was 18.38±21.96. The first three areas that these studies focused on were pathogenesis (42%), clinic (16%), and treatment (12%). A significant relationship was found between the publication year of the article, name and country of the journal, and the mean annual citation number. A significant relationship was found between the subject of the study and the presence of a group author in the study and both the total number of citations and the mean annual citation number (p<0.05). Conclusion: Our study is the first study evaluating and analyzing the top 100 most cited studies related to SS in the literature. Today, the importance of rheumatological diseases in the clinic is increasing day by day, and SS, which is among these diseases, has a great place. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
